CQUniversity aims to help suppliers prepare by improving transparency around future procurement opportunities. We now disclose major potential projects via the Queensland Forward Procurement Pipeline.
These listings provide suppliers with early visibility of significant projects that may be coming to market. The intent is to support supplier planning and capacity, helping reduce instances where suppliers are unable to respond due to short notice.
Please note:
- CQUniversity listings on the pipeline do not constitute a commitment by CQUniversity to proceed with the project.
- Projects listed may be subject to change, cancellation, or rescheduling.
- Due to the early-stage nature of these listings, we ask suppliers to please refrain from making enquiries, as project teams are unlikely to be confirmed. Further details will be shared through appropriate channels as projects progress.
We encourage suppliers to monitor the pipeline regularly via Queensland Forward Procurement Pipeline and prepare accordingly for potential opportunities.
